U.S.-China relations affect global stability in important ways. Graham Allison, Professor of Government at Harvard Kennedy School, explains how the Thucydides’ Trap shapes the challenge of managing competition between the two countries. Allison examines strategic stability, the Xi-Trump summit, and the promise and limits of a new paradigm for major-country relations, helping clarify whether the U.S. and China can avoid conflict. Allison is joined by Molly Roberts, UC San Diego Director of the 21st Century China Center, to further explore this relationship. This conversation helps explain the stakes of their rivalry and points toward the possibilities and limits of constructive strategic stability.
